Beyonce commented Wednesday on the apparent leak of her new album, "4," two weeks before it was scheduled to arrive in stores.  In a Facebook posting, the R&B star said: 

"My music was leaked and while this is not how I wanted to present my new songs, I appreciate the positive response from my fans. When I record music I always think about my fans singing every note and dancing to every beat. I make music to make people happy and I appreciate that everyone has been so anxious to hear my new songs."

Though the regular version of the album was leaked, there are a few tracks that have not been heard which are to be included in an exclusive version of the album that will only be sold at Target stores.  The tracklisting for the exclusive version has not been announced.
